This exercise is helpful to improve general mobility and is
particularly used for relaxation of the muscles of your back and pelvis.
It also helps to relieve pain in the facet joint by stretching
the capsules and ligaments around the facet joints in your lower back: left capsules and ligaments will be stretched
as you take your knees to the right, and vice versa.
HOW TO DO BACK ROTATION EXERCISE?
Lie down on your back bending your knees, as shown above, keep
your feet flat on the floor and your arms by your sides. Press your lower back
downwards into the floor.
Keep your knees together and lift them up to the middle of
your abdominal region, and bring your arms straight out to your sides.
Let your legs drop to the right as far as they can go. Keep breathing
slowly and deeply and allow your legs to drop a little farther with each
breath.
Hold for as long as you can, then return to the starting
position and do the movement for the other side. Always perform alternatively.
Repeat the movement initially 5 times and gradually increase
the count once comfortable.
